Natalie - i wanna give you the biggest hug! funny think is...i may need it more than you - ha ha...i guess that's what happens when any mommy reads your thoughts. i am still praying for you...and those lumps :)

You are soooo amazing. You make me laugh & cry. Those two emotions are so close sometimes. You are touching so many lives! Love you & your family. So so sorry for all you have to go through. You're in our constant prayers!

your faith in God amazes me. Since discovering the blog world I have cried more than I can ever remember in my entire life (56 years). I have also gained strength in knowing so many have such a strong faith in God no matter their circumstance. You have so much love and support thank God for that. I hope the days get easier and lumps not so frequent but that will take a very long time. I'm praying for you and your family day and night. Denise.

the lumps stay with you, I'm glad you're talking about them and "feeling" the emotions that come with them-that means your healing is in progress...that's the best anyone can hope for. Your boys are lucky to have such a strong mommy!

Oh Natalie - I barely know where to start... I came to your blog from Ms. Emi Ruth's blog and my heart is aching for you right now. That lump is awful and terrible - burning and choking.

You've inspired me with your incredible faith. For some reason, I'm in that phase where I'm questioning my faith because things are still so difficult. I guess I don't so much question my testimony, I'm just convinced that if my faith was strong enough, my grief wouldn't still be so raw. Reading your words tonight really brought comfort to me.

(big exhale...) wow. What an amazing mother, what an amazing blog. The entry about your son's last moments was so very, very familar, having had our own very similar PICU last moments with Charlotte almost a year ago. Sending you prayers.

so a friend suggested i take a peek at your blog, and wow, i am not quite sure what to say. first of all, i am so deeply sorry for your incredible loss. second of all, thank you. thank you. thank you. for your words, every one of them. i love them. you are truely inspiring. we too, had to bid a temporary farewell-to our precious little girl in november. a lot of your words are feeling all too familiar. my heart aches for you. i pray that you continue to find peace in the beautiful plan of salvation and eternal families. i agree. God IS good. so good. He is all knowing. He is all powerful. He does not let anything or anyONE slip through the cracks. i don't even know you, but i just want to say how great i think you are. i can feel how pure you are. what a wonderful mother you are. how lucky your children are to have such a mommy for eternity. my sincere condolences,brooke
